Tooth Whitening Dentistry To Fix Discolored, Dark Or Stained Teeth At Gary B Wiele DDS
 

Tooth bleaching involves the placement of a bleaching solution on the teeth to remove stains and discoloration. The solution is held in place by a custom-made, see-through tray that fits over the teeth - much like a mouthpiece worn by a professional boxer.

Bleaching is a safe, effective and relatively easy means of producing a whiter smile.

Two bleaching methods are available at Gary B Wiele DDS: Power Bleaching with a Laser, done at our office, and At-Home-Bleaching, which provides for home use (not to be confused with over-the-counter bleaching products available in local St Louis area drug stores).

The difference between the two is the strength of the whitening agent and the time it takes to get effective results. 
Power bleaching usually takes three to six visits, while home bleaching may take two to four weeks of regular use.  Unless you are really pressed for time, we recommend the Take-Home whitening method due to the ease of use and the greatly reduce cost of less than half.  We believe Power whitening is at its best after the staining of the teeth has been “softened” with the Take-Home method.

Sensitive teeth, or those that are chipped, eroded or weakened by cavities, must be repaired or protected before they are bleached, or else you run the risk of increased sensitivity. 

Please don't hesitate to call Gary B Wiele DDS at (888) 803-1465 with any questions you may have about the benefits of tooth whitening or tooth bleaching for a whiter smile.
